It's time for another round of #TeamTBA! Meet the people behind the scenes and learn more about the moving parts, projects and staffers of the Tennessee Bar Association. Lanny Brown is TBA's assistant executive director and he oversees the day-to-day operations of the organization. Lanny came to the TBA last year after serving as vice president of the Girl Scouts of Middle Tennessee and as curator of the Nashville Zoo. (His behind-the-scenes stories of the zoo are fascinating.) He says his favorite part of his job is working with an amazing staff of professionals who don't take themselves too seriously. Lanny is an amateur dendrologist, he can stop his own hiccups after no more than two and he prefers function over fashion — cargo shorts all the way. The #TeamTBA series offers members a behind-the-scenes look at the inner workings of the TBA and how each staff member makes the association run. Check back next week for a new staff profile in TBA Today and on the TBA's Facebook and Instagram accounts.
